[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] HashyCode:
I been wanted to create this thread for longtime because i find that user way of reporting bugs isn't much positive

This lead to particular OP for the Rom Build/Mods/Apps/Themes unable to provide a proper fix

Particular problem is from the user whom take for granted steps & reading just for sake finding for "downloads"

ADDED TO THE WIKI >> HERE <<

Therefore i would like introduce few steps that make OP & User with their problem easier​

Post at correct forum (Particular Device)

I found that some particular user posted on wrong forum that are not related

Example :: problem on Xperia XXXX ROM on Samsung Forum thread(This Is Improper)

Please Post on the Device Forum that dedicated for your device only

[*]Post at particular Thread that you have encounter problem

If you have a problem/bug to report on XXX Rom.Do Report on XXX Rom Thread & not YYY Rom or other's

If there's a Solution/FAQ Page for the particular rom do report on the thread instead the [DEV] thread

Doesn't require to open a thread on the Android Development Forum.It's just spam at there.We hate it(I mean you not suppose to)

[*]Do Not Use The Private Message Button

Please Never Ever Sent Any PM to developers just to report the bug you encountered.Post it on the particular thread that mentioned

Developers/OP will have an eye on it.Therefore doesn't need to sent pm to report your's

Do appreciate work by the developers & respect they have their own time too.Keep your question on thread

[*]Read OP Pages At least twice

The place that you will gain all the info you should have

Read every single notice/quote/information/instruction/faq/other's written page

Do not just head to the download section and press the download

Get every info on which particular thing you need and what you should do to install it

[*]Follow ALL the instruction given

When the OP Posted Wipe Cache & Dalvik.It mean to select that particular option only

If the OP Posted Use Only Select/Recommend Kernel.Please do only flash/install particular kernel only

Follow each and all instruction properly(No lazyness/Skipping) any one of those

[*]Search through thread whether the similar problem has been reported

Let say you have setting fc's everytime you enable the sound option.Do search before whether other user have reported or not

If The Particular Problem/Bug has been reported.Doesn't need another user to report it.(Duplicating post)

[*]Give Proper Report

Give A Report Such As This

What steps/instruction did you used?

Did you try wipe & cache

Did you tried it more then twice?

What kernel you are running on?

Which version of build you are having problem with

Do Explain the problem clearly.If you have random reboot upon selecting theme manager,

do report that it's due to the theme manager not just saying "I have random reboot"

If possible provide a screenshot

Do provide an adb logcat (everyone on this forum should have at least logcat skill)

This is one of the best answer for the dev/op to fix if you unable to describe all the problem

[*]Do not ask or force the OP/Developers to fix the problem

No matter what problem you are having,no words such as "Please" fix the problem

Developers have their own time,they choose to fix what they want,You don't pay for what you download

[*]Take your third party installation problem away

Let say you have installed a third party mod (Ex: Beats Audio) ,if you encounter any problem please post on the beats audio thread instead

If You having problem by supercharging or installing any third party patch do take to the particular thread or keep it on your own.

[*]Stop Asking Whether Will This Work Or Not

:Facepalm: Please try it yourself or see over comment by user.

If you want to know just install and test it yourself

If you afraid bricking then never go near a development thread.There's always a Risk

[*]Press thanks button to user/devs that helped you

[*]Provide logcats whenever possible

Dmesg & Logcat using simple terminal emulator

su
dmesg >/mnt/sdcard/dmesg.txt
logcat -d -v time >/mnt/sdcard/logcat.txt

Hope This Clear Enough For All User To Report Problem On What they encounter.

As developer a positive bug report are very useful to us to fix all the problem that we might not noticed

With proper method,this will not just help us to get problem solved but less unwanted post or waste of time

Any suggestion/fix can be made with reply below v

Hope this does what it does.

I recommend all user especially new member that join XDA to read this

We don't want keep reporting 10poster/spam user.Moderator have life too :D​
